Uncivil Contradictions

Whatever one thinks about the American Civil War, there exists one massive contradiction I have never seen mentioned: those who praise the invasion solution to the evils of American slavery--the Ken Burns types in Western ruling groups--are also allied with dozens of Muslim countries where various forms of forced labor are widely practiced. 

Why the contradictions? 

Rulers agree with the mass slaughter of whites and more than a few blacks to end slavery, but take marching orders from Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and other Sunni nations. 

Why the moral relativism? 

The least Western rulers could do is create a buyer's cartel and large Pigouvian taxes to oppose OPEC, plus bans on migration invasions and legalized bribery.

But Western rulers are Westerners only in a legalistic sense. And logical and ethical in almost no sense. No self-contradiction is too great for them to ignore.

Contemporary whites often ridicule their ancestors. But in 100 years, the few remaining whites will have a field day with today's totalitarian neo-Marxism, neoconservatism, and third wayism.
